snowbound

Because of fear of falling, I haven't left the house in almost two weeks. The computer is sort of working again but I've ordered a big laptop to become the next phase of my "career".

I'm composing something on the difference 'twixt "health care" and "health care insurance" - a distinction that seems unclear to presidential candidates - and to many who are swayed by the idea that somehow a bunch of elites will be kinder to them than "public servants", who are equated with "big government". I guess I have trouble with the idea that the overhead of an absurd for-profit industry is less than that of a something as spare as the postal service.
